v0.7.0

Completes the hardware encode/decode matrix.

Added

  • AV1 hardware encoders — completes the encode matrix: av1_nvenc, av1_qsv,
    av1_vaapi, av1_amf (no av1_videotoolbox — Apple ships no AV1 encoder).
    Requires recent silicon (Arc/Battlemage, Ada/Blackwell, RDNA3+). Selectable by
    name/alias across all analysis and encode commands.
  • Hardware-accelerated decode — EncodeJob.hwaccel and the encode --hwaccel
    flag inject -hwaccel <method> (e.g. vaapi, cuda, qsv, videotoolbox)
    before the input; available methods are detected via ffmpeg -hwaccels at startup.

Fixed

  • VAAPI encode surface plumbing — VAAPI encoders (h264_vaapi, hevc_vaapi,
    av1_vaapi) now initialise a render device (-vaapi_device, overridable via
    VISER_VAAPI_DEVICE) and upload frames to GPU surfaces (format=nv12,hwupload)
    via a unified -vf filter chain. Previously VAAPI encodes were emitted with
    software frames and would fail on real hardware.

Changed

  • EncodeJob gained a hwaccel: Option<String> field (breaking for
    struct-literal construction).
